God & Money - Part 2
In Part 2, we go deeper into the heart behind giving — how generosity invites blessing, breaks the grip of poverty mindsets, and reflects a Kingdom-first perspective. Whether you're managing the finances or walking in faith with your spouse, this episode will encourage you to trust God with every dollar and every decision.It’s not just about what you give — it’s about who you become when you give.

God & Money
How we handle our money reveals what we truly value. In this episode, we explore the powerful connection between faith, finances, and Kingdom alignment.From tithing and offering, to stewarding resources instead of claiming ownership — we discuss how generosity isn’t about losing, it’s about trusting. We also dive into the mindsets behind giving: faith vs. fear, stewardship vs. ownership, and how a generous spirit breaks the grip of a poverty mindset.Whether you're the one managing the budget or walking in agreement with your spouse, you'll be encouraged to see money not as a burden, but as a tool for obedience and blessing. Because when your finances are in alignment with God's principles, your whole life starts moving in the right direction.This isn’t just about giving — it’s about becoming a vessel God can trust.

The Need For Godly Influence
“Be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed…” – Romans 12:2In this episode, we confront a subtle yet powerful battleground: influence. In a world where our attention is constantly being pulled in every direction, we’re diving into what it means to intentionally guard our hearts, minds, and homes from distractions that weaken our walk with God.We explore how godly influences don’t just inspire us — they shape us. They help reclaim the territory distraction has stolen. Whether it’s media, relationships, or inner mindsets, we’re talking about how to realign our inputs so we can reflect Kingdom values with clarity and conviction.Because if we don’t choose our influences, the world will choose them for us.Tune in for a powerful conversation on fighting for focus, cultivating godly alignment, and intentionally placing voices around you that stir your spirit — not silence it.

The Power of a Made - Up Mind
In this episode, we explore what happens when your mind is truly made up to follow God. This isn't just about one emotional moment — it’s about choosing, again and again, to pursue Him with unwavering intention.We dive into how the power of a made-up mind impacts:Your worship — even when you don’t feel like itYour home — setting priorities that anchor your familyYour habits — building spiritual routines that outlast emotionWhether you're a parent, a leader, or someone simply trying to stay faithful in a noisy world, this conversation will remind you: that your consistency is an act of worship, and your decision carries power.Because revival doesn’t start in a moment of hype — it begins with a quiet, unshakable yes.

"What Can Your Faith Do?"
This week on Root Awakening, we’re leaning into a transformative word from our pastor — a revelation that we are not just believers… we are co-creators with God.In this episode, we explore the creative authority that faith gives us: the ability to shift atmospheres, speak life into barren places, and partner with God to bring heaven to earth. Faith isn’t just a posture of trust — it’s a conduit of power. It’s how we birth the unseen into existence.Whether you’re praying over your family, stepping into a calling, or facing an impossible situation — this episode will remind you that through faith, you’re not waiting on the miracle… you’re part of the miracle.

Turning Your Home Into An Altar
What if the most powerful place of worship wasn’t the church building — but your home?In this episode of Root Awakening, we explore how turning your home into an altar changes everything: your atmosphere, your attitude, and what happens when you gather for corporate worship. From daily routines to quiet prayers, we dive into the truth that worship begins where you live — and revival starts before you ever reach the church doors.We’re discussing building a fire in the secret place, tending it daily, and bringing it into the sanctuary. Because the presence of God isn’t something we visit — it’s something we host.

What Children Teach Us About living For God
Children don’t just grow under our care — they teach us how to live. In this nurturing and deeply reflective episode, we look at how the simple, honest, and wonder-filled nature of children reveals powerful truths about walking with God.From their unshakable trust and quick forgiveness to their fearless dependence and awe for the world around them, children reflect the posture Jesus calls us to: not childish, but childlike.We explore what it means to return to the Father with soft hearts, open hands, and a renewed sense of wonder. Because the most profound spiritual lessons often don’t come from pulpits — they come from the little hands holding yours.

Breaking Cycles, Not Just Chains
We celebrate the moment when chains break—but what about the patterns we return to afterward? In this episode, we go beyond the altar and dive into the deeper work of discipleship, healing, and transformation.We’ll talk about how deliverance sets you free, but daily surrender and renewal keep you free.If you’ve ever felt like you were back in the same battle even after a breakthrough, this conversation is for you. Because God doesn’t just want to break the chain—He wants to break the cycle.

The Movement of Grace
In this episode of Root Awakening, we explore the powerful truth that grace is not just a moment—it’s a movement from the altar where we first received salvation, through the daily walk of sanctification, and into the eternal promise of glorification, grace works in every phase of our journey.Whether you’re new in the faith or have walked with God for years, this conversation will remind you that grace hasn’t stopped moving—and neither should you.
-
43
Uncommon Courtesy
In this episode we explore the rarely discussed but deeply spiritual discipline of uncommon courtesy. More than manners or politeness, this kind of courtesy is a reflection of the Holy Ghost at work in us—how we treat others when it’s inconvenient, undeserved, or unnoticed.We’ll unpack how costly kindness becomes an act of worship, why submission to God shows up in how we treat people who can’t benefit us, and how godly courtesy isn’t about being nice—it’s about being Christlike.Prepare to be challenged and changed as we go deeper than cultural politeness and into Kingdom honor.
-
42
Deference Makes the Difference
In this episode, we dive deep into the power of deference—what it truly means to prefer one another in love. In a culture obsessed with visibility and status, the Kingdom calls us to unity, humility, and honor. We’ll explore how deference silences competition, strengthens the body of Christ, and leads us from comparison to completion.
